Chapter 159 Don’t you plan for your future?
Xie Yuan looked at him and saw how cute he looked. He wanted to laugh unconsciously, but who was she?
In the past few years in the military camp, because she was young, she had to carry the dignity of a superior, and she was afraid of being seen as a girl, so she was usually reluctant to smile.
So she developed a stern face, no matter how funny she is, she can always look stern.
Xie Yuan withdrew his cold eyes, stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his clothes and said:
"I don't believe it... I'm going to pay my respects to my parents." After saying that, he walked away gracefully.
Shen Liuzhen stood up in panic and hurriedly chased after him, saying eagerly as he chased:
"A Yuan...A Yuan!...I am telling the truth! I will never lie to you..."
…
The two of them paid their respects together, and Shen Liuzhen was dragged away by Xie's father to talk happily.
Mrs. Xie held Xie Yuan's hand and spoke.
"When are you leaving?" Mrs. Xie looked at her daughter's face and asked.
"Mom, tomorrow morning." Xie Yuan saw the heartache and reluctance in Mrs. Xie's eyes, so he quickly added, "...I will leave after you wake up."
Mrs. Xie's face did not change for the better. Her lips trembled slightly because of sadness. Finally, she held back her tears and lowered her head. She held her hand tightly and said humbly:
"Ayuan, Mom doesn't want to stop you from doing anything, but parents always want their children to live a better life. There are some things I don't say, and I always feel uneasy and can't sleep..."
Xie Yuan looked at Mrs. Xie's lowered head and the few silver strands that had grown out of her bun at some point. His heart ached and he said:
"Mom, I understand, just say it and I'll listen."
Mrs. Xie did not raise her head, she just held her daughter's hand, rubbed the warmth of her hand, and said: "...What if you are discovered to be a girl? My mother feels distressed just thinking about it. She was attacked by everyone's rumors. Ridicule, how will you live your life under the strange eyes of everyone?"
Xie Yuan wanted to say that he was not afraid and didn't care, but his lips moved and he did not speak in the end.
Just listen to Mrs. Xie continue to say: "...Liu Zhen is a good boy. Maybe you are your childhood sweethearts. The deep friendship between you is also a blessing in misfortune. No one else in this world would think like him... Listen Your father said that he is surprisingly supportive of your affairs..."
Mrs. Xie suddenly paused, as if she had thought of something, and then said: "...It's also possible that he is young and doesn't understand this yet."
Mrs. Xie looked up at Xie Yuan, looked into her eyes eagerly, and said: "A Yuan... in two years, you will be sixteen years old. No matter what the situation is then, just go home and follow Let Zhen get married, and the two of you can live a peaceful life. Mom is not stopping you. You still have a long time ahead of you. When no one else notices, you take the initiative to resign and go home and become a girl again..."
Xie Yuangang was about to speak. Madam Xie was afraid that she would be angry, so she quickly explained:
"You heard my mother tell you that what you want to do has been done, and you have proved yourself, haven't you? Since you have done it, you should have no regrets. People always have to live in reality, you Don’t you have plans for your future?”
Xie Yuan tried his best to suppress the unwillingness in his heart, but his words were still like a knife:
"I don't intend to be like my mother, trapped in the four walls of the backyard all my life. In the end, I feel guilty because I can't give birth to a son, and I find concubines for my husband against my will."
Mrs. Xie's whole body trembled, her eyes were painful, she suddenly let go of Xie Yuan's hand, and looked into Xie Yuan's eyes in surprise, tears about to fill her eyes.
Xie Yuan immediately regretted it. She closed her eyes and said in a guilty voice: "Mom... I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said. Don't take it to heart."
Mrs. Xie's tears fell down and she quickly raised her handkerchief to wipe them. After a moment of relief, she said with a forced smile:
"It's okay, it's okay... Actually, it's all my fault, mother. I'm not in good health, and your father and I are spoiling you. When you get older, you don't even realize that you are a girl... If we had strictly disciplined you since you were a child
, I tell you that women should be meek and courteous, and you won’t be like this... If you were a tomboy, then what you are thinking now is correct, but it’s a pity that you are a girl.”
"I don't think it makes a big difference that I am a girl. I can do what others can do. Even if you don't let me do it. Mother... have you ever thought that maybe you are wrong, because it is a convention?
, was blinded, and regarded something that was unreasonable as reasonable?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Xie became excited. She looked at Xie Yuan and said: "A Yuan...Okay, even if your parents and we are all wrong, we admit that we are wrong and it is we who have shackled you. But you can make everyone
Do you admit you were wrong?"
Xie Yuan pursed his lips stubbornly, turned his face away, and said nothing.
Mrs. Xie frowned, followed her eyes, and said:
"Did you know that when a woman reaches adulthood, she will have her menstrual period? When the time comes, you will know how inconvenient it is to be a woman. It is not just something you want to compare with a man. How can you hide it?... Do you have to wait?
Can you come back only after you have suffered so much glare, ridicule and criticism from the world that you can recognize the reality clearly?"
Xie Yuan finally felt unbearably bored. Even though she felt sorry for her mother, she still couldn't bear the argument. So she stood up and said:
"We'll talk about these things later. Mom, I haven't been back for a long time. I want to see all the places I was familiar with, so I'm leaving now."
"Stop!" Mrs. Xie looked at her daughter's back and spoke urgently. She was helpless and anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
The little dumpling he once held in his arms has now grown almost as tall as himself. He is now an adult and can no longer be controlled.
Xie Yuan stood there and turned around again, pressing his lips tightly with a stubborn look on his face. Danfeng's eyes were cold as he looked at Mrs. Xie without saying a word.
Mrs. Xie seemed to have given up and said dejectedly: "Come over here and have your body measured. I will help the embroiderer at home to make you two pieces of clothing and you can take them away."
Xie Yuan's heart suddenly felt sour and astringent, and his mood was complicated and difficult to distinguish. He said softly: "Don't bother me, mother, I don't have enough time. I have clothes to wear."
"What you have, can it be the same as what Mom made? Besides, what good is the material of the clothes distributed in the military camp? Mom will use the best materials to make two linings for you to wear inside. It will save you as much hardship as possible.
Eat some hardships." Mrs. Xie walked to the side and picked up the string dustpan that had been prepared aside early.
Xie Yuan had no choice but to walk back and obediently stretched out his arms.
Mrs. Xie wrapped a wire ruler around Xie Yuan's waist, felt the hard wooden armor she was wearing under her clothes, and asked:
"What are you still wearing at home?...Take it off."
